I am the elected president of Liberia, not Ellen Sirleaf. They stole my victory, and I am here to say loud and clear that I am the winner of the elections.

I can see in your eyes, I can see in your faces, I can see you cry. But what I want to say, there's no reason to cry. Do not, in the name of peace, go in the streets and riot.

They say I do not have the qualifications to be president, that I do not have education. Well, I would never divide the Liberian people.

Education is a continual process, it's like a bicycle... If you don't pedal you don't go forward.

My government will be open. Anyone found guilty of corruption will be dealt with in accordance with the law. If you are corrupt you will have to hang your boots.

Once you take care of people, people respect you.

My fellow revolutionaries, liberation is a noble cause. We must fight to obtain it.

My father died when I was young and I was raised by my grandmother, Emma Klonjlaleh Brown. We could afford to eat chicken just once a year, on Christmas.

I will go on my knees and ask the Liberian people to participate in bringing peace and stability to our country.

I have proven to the world that I am articulate, I am very intelligent, I'm well exposed.

I will do nothing for 89 minutes, but score in the 90th.

The wise man is one who knows, the significance and nothingness of his life.

Follow your heart but take your brain with you.

Never fear your enemies, fear your actions.

I'm not one of those radical believers that everybody has to be forced to do one thing.

Back then, if you had a sore arm, the only people concerned were you and your wife. Now it's you, your wife, your agent, your investment counselor, your stockbroker, and your publisher.

I feel that the greatest reward for doing is the opportunity to do more.

If you are poor, shun association with him who measures men with the yardstick of riches.

So it's worth some real up front time to think through the long term value and the defensibility of the business.

I was delivering pizzas at Domino's. I was 17 maybe. I liked it a lot. Just driving in the nice weather and listening to music.

I had a hit single on the radio for 30 days before I graduated from high school.
